GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My experience at BCHS was good. I enjoyed all of the high school curriculum and enjoyed my time with my teachers. BCHS allowed me to grow not only as a student but as a person as well. Although, I do wish that they were better at vocalizing opportunities for students and allow students to know about college readiness other than focusing on academics.

I loved my experience at BCHS. Being at this school exposed me to many different people from backgrounds and cultures I may not have met at different schools. I loved most of my teachers during my time here.

Some subjects are very good, others are very lacking. Woke feel and catering to negative influence is a problem here.

Constant fights and criminal activity. All the staff stuck and the teachers are always grumpy and have nothing better to do. Do better.
